About this house rental
This spacious, bright, beautifully decorated Leucadia home is located in a prime location within this peaceful, gated seaside community in North County Coastal San Diego.
The unique end unit home, arguable the best location in the community (unless you desire to be oceanfront), with full ocean view is located right on the path that leads directly to the stairs down to the sparsely populated beach in one direction, and to one of the two pools in the other. It is a 3 level split home with hardwood floors and original art throughout and boasts full ocean views from almost every room! Enter in through the front Dutch door and a few stairs will lead you to the lower level where the kitchen, living room and both the inside and outside dining areas welcome you. Open up the two large sliding glass doors that lead out onto the furnished, spacious deck to fully enjoy the scent of the ocean air, sounds of the crashing waves, and the serenity of the pelicans passing by.
The contemporary open kitchen with beautiful quartz countertops, subway tiles, and ocean blue cabinets is equipped with all stainless steel top grade appliances, and is fully stocked for you to be able to prepare any meal. If there is something you need, just ask - I'd love to accommodate you.
The dining area is furnished with a counter height table and seating for six.
The living room is modern with spacious high ceilings and a flat screen tv, electric fireplace, ceiling fan and access to the expansive deck. Lounge on the sectional couch, curl up in the hanging hammock chair, or sit back and put your feet up on the leather recliner to relax with a good book.
Out on the deck, enjoy a beverage from the barstool height cushioned swivel armchairs while catching the sunset over the pacific, or spot dolphin pods that frequent the surf, and then dinner al fresco off the gas grill around the teak dining set. There is an umbrella for those warmer, sunny summer days.
The two guest bedrooms are located on the entry and middle level, each with windows facing out to the magnolia trees, lush lawn, pool and open space. One is appointed with a queen bed, the second with two twin beds, all with cozy high end mattresses. The twin room has a skylight for added brightness. Each has a flat screen tv and a ceiling fan. Also on this level is a full bathroom with tub and shower and is equipped with a top grade front loading washer & dryer.
Make your way up the skylight lit stairs to the top level where you will find your private, spacious, window filled master retreat. It will take your breath away. The bedroom and retreat/office both look out over the expanses of green grass and the breaking waves.
The cozy California king bed is dressed with lot’s of pillows, percale sheets and a memory foam mattress. It's truly a glorious experience to fall asleep and awaken to the sound of the crashing waves, the scent of the sea air and if the timing is right, the full moon setting over the ocean! Work, relax, nap, from the adjacent retreat, simply furnished with an electric standing optional desk, chair, and twin size swing bed, raised high enough to enjoy the ocean view. Both rooms are equipped with ceiling fans. The master bath includes a roomy shower, toilet, double sinks, a skylight and a spacious walk in closet.
You'll find beach accessories - chairs, umbrella, boogie boards and plenty of towels in the front hall closet and the detached garage is only a few steps from the front door where you'll find 2 beach cruisers and space for one car. Save gas and take the bikes to a local brewery, coffee shop, restaurant, shops, other nearby beaches, or explore the funky neighborhoods.
Walk down the stairs to the beach and take a swim, body surf or hop on a boogie board. Some of the best surfing in the world is here. You can pack a picnic, or run up the stairs and grab a snack - you're that close! During low tide, you can walk south for miles, beach-comb, tide-pool, watch world class surfing, and enjoy observing the abundant wildlife - pelicans, sandpipers, dolphin, and sometimes even a seal or migrating whales, depending on the time of year.
A FEW IMPORTANT NOTES TO HELP YOU DECIDE IF THIS PROPERTY IS RIGHT FOR YOU
~There are approximately 76 stairs down to the beach from the bluff.
~ If you are looking for a place that is fully air conditioned, and are used to living in A/C with the doors and windows closed, this probably is not the property for you. For those who are here in the summer months, there are several portable fans available to supplement the ceiling fans. The top of the line, highly rated portable air conditioning unit provided is sufficient to cool the master suite on those few extra hot nights. If you are still unsure, let's talk!
~ I love dogs, and welcome your well trained, flea protected, non-shedding dog on a case by case basis. Please introduce me to him/her, and I'll let you know if it's a match.
~I love cats too, but unfortunately I cannot allow cats for your vacation stay.

Or walk south and check out the vibe of this funky, grassroots beach town, where you'll find locally owned shops, eateries, coffee shops, the locally famous Leucadia Donuts, a brewery and winery. Just a short drive south will bring you to thriving downtown Encinitas, Cardiff, Solana Beach, Del Mar and eventually La Jolla, all part of North County San Diego's famous beach and surf towns.

It was a very nice location, host was very helpful. I would note that the WiFi is slow and for streaming it kept spinning, and stuttering, which was unfortunate during our stay as the Olympics were on and the system wasn’t really responding well. It trying to watch movies at night.
Overall the amenities were nice, kitchen well stocked.
With everything needed to cook. Table and chairs we uncomfortable for older people…very hard to sit and have dinner or play games on…

Outstanding stay! My parents in their 70s and family of 4 with 2 little kids (2 and 4yo) stayed at Alyson's home for a week. We had an amazing time. The condo has stunning views from both the first and second floors of the ocean and you are just a short walk to the cliffs overlooking the ocean. There is a steeper stairwell directly to the beach and we enjoyed evening walks along the shore. The home was well equipped with everything we needed for our week stay and more. The beds were some of the most comfortable we have slept on! There were 2 pools (1 heated) on the property that we enjoyed using as well and Alyson provided all the towels/toys and beach items you would need! Really enjoyed our stay and can't wait to visit San Diego again!

We had a wonderful and relaxing stay in Leucadia. From the amazing amenities in the area (skate park in Encinitas, surfing, dining, shopping) to the gated community’s relaxed vibe…to the amazing views just steps away, it was terrific.
Alyson is a great host and intent on improving her guests experience with each visit.
We will definitely return!

We really enjoyed our stay at Alyson’s place. Very cozy and eclectic. Has a great ocean view! Centrally located in the middle of Seabluffe. Right in front of the stairs to beach. Grounds are well kept. Lush with green grass and flowers. Complex has a guard gate so we felt safe. Home had a big swing with pillows to relax on and watch the waves! Alyson was very accommodating and prompt to respond. Was a great time.

Beautiful property with an ideal location in the Seabluffe community. The property does not have central air conditioning but the owner worked with us to put in an air conditioning unit in the upstairs master bedroom which made a big difference. Excellent communication with owner.

We loved our time on the deck looking at the ocean and walking down often to the cliff overlook.
The property included great beach gear, boggie boards and plenty of beach towels. Kitchen was also nicely stocked with a range of spices and cooking oils.
The property owner was very responsive to all of our questions and very helpful.

We loved our time at this property! My husband, father and two kids stayed here last week. The complex is very quiet (which is nice considering how busy the surrounding areas are). The home is beautiful and spacious, and the kitchen has all of the amenities. We went to surf side market for Cardiff crack and used the grill outside to prepare the meat (which worked great). The house has all
Of the amenities you need for the beach- chairs, towels, umbrella and boogie boards. The pool is heated and very close to the unit. We were able to see dolphins swimming in the ocean from the deck! Alyson was very welcoming! We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Home & Location
The property is very clean and lovely ... The location was ideal for so many places, 3rd floor bedroom was amazing with a sitting area to watch the Pacific Ocean.. The kitchen was fully loaded with items needed for cooking or grilling, we loved the deck with coffee in the morning and sunset was just a few steps away on an overlook to the beach.
All bedrooms were comfortable, clean, with quality linens, pillows and comforters. Plenty of space for 5 adults .. the living room sofa was a comfy and relaxing spot to get together... All TV's are well sized with streaming which was just enough.
It's a very safe gated community with kind security to welcome you and assist. Restaurants are super close and walking to hotel next door for drinks at Vaga is a must.. Some amazing places all around Encinitas, you will not be disappointed staying here.. Our family enjoyed an amazing Christmas trip and hated leaving..

Wonderful Week at SeaBluffe
Alyson was a great host, checking with us via text as needed but also ensuring a very quiet and private week at her beautiful, well appointed (and very clean) home a block from the beach. Parking is easy, either in the garage or the lot nearby. Lots of dining options in walking distance.
Early morning tennis followed by coffee on the deck were highlights for us each day. Tennis and pickleball courts can be booked easily via an app. The pool is conveniently located too.
The local beach (just down the steps right out the front door) is great for swimming and boogie boarding. If you're a dog owner, you'll love Dog Beach not too far away (Del Mar) as dogs are not allowed on the local beach.
Thanks Alyson for a great week!

A Vacation to Remember
My husband and I truly enjoyed our stay this summer in this fabulous home. This vacation home was everything Alyson said it would be in her pictures and description. We had an incredible and relaxing time with beautiful views of the ocean (just steps away) with the tides rolling in and gorgeous sunsets. Leucadia is a very quaint beach town with nice restaurants, walkable from Sea Bluff. The people we met in the neighborhood were always so friendly and helpful. Great for dogs too. The house is very clean and well-equipped for every possible need and Alyson was so thoughtful about everything and did not leave a single detail out. She was also incredibly responsive anytime we had a question. We so enjoyed our stay (as did our two adult children) that we definitely plan on coming back next year. This home is by far our most favorite VRBO that we have ever stayed in and absolutely deserves a minimum of five stars. Kudos Alyson. You're the best.

Perfect family getaway
We rented this home for the month of June 2021 after having been cooped up for over a year due to the pandemic. It was the perfect change of scenery that we all craved. From the very beginning, we felt like we were renting someone's home versus a generic, commercial dwelling. We live in the San Diego area so this was more of a staycation for us. We explored the area daily with walks along the beach, walking the dog along 101 & Neptune, and frequenting a new restaurant almost every day. The kitchen had a full complement of appliances & kitchenware to make meals, but we were too lazy to cook much and would rather spend our time just staring at the ocean from within the living room or out on the patio. There was ample parking for our three cars including one in the garage. My favorite memory will be listening to the waves crash all night from the open windows while I slept. Blissful.
